Haven

Morning rise, as I crumble

Down and have to face another day

There’s a search, yet unfinished,

For the essence of the one I now am and soon will be

As every ship demands a harbor to land in

I need to find my solid ground

Whenever there’s imbalance in between my selves

Someone has to give me shelter

Haven, haven – keep me safe from stormy nights

Right on the morrow bury my sorrows

Deep within a casket out of sight, my sight

Late at night, as I reckon

All the pieces of this maze I’m in

There’s a spark, yet unclear,

A perception that enlightens my internal debate

It seems wherever I may go the answer’s “no”

To every question that I make

Why have I taken just so long to realize

“Yes” lies with my kin, my blood tribe

Haven, haven – keep me safe from the awful truth

Bear no intrusion, heal the delusions

Rooted in the memories of my youth, poor youth

Just before my time runs out

Came to know the balance I’ve longed for is right within my reach

Good and bad I have been through

Only with these loving people (all around my soul) I could

Haven, haven - keep me safe from disbelief

Find me a reason for every season

I have spent in so much loss and grief, deep grief
